If commerce were not regulated (cronyistic protectionsim via government edict) that same burger flipper could set up a grill on his front yard and open his own business. If he made a good product, or a bad product, the free market would sort out the income part.

If somebody shit on his lawn, he could kick their ass out in a hurry too.

$320 is a little steep. It's amazing how much people will pay to acquire something that raises their self esteem.

Of course there are people that blow thousands of dollars on new cars etc. because they believe the model will buy them an image.

I see, I thought you were one of the ones going in the opposite direction for a moment

Check out this thread: https://www.rollitup.org/t/do-you-believe-americans-who-work-full-time-should-earn-a-living-wage.869813/

Feel free to cast a vote if you don't mind

The fight for a living wage is front and center this election. LA just voted on $15/hour minimum wage (2nd largest city in the country), so that makes a statement. I'm 100% with you that the minimum wage is simply not enough to survive on basic necessities. Opponents want to bitch that it's too much, let em bitch about the price of rent, the price of milk or eggs. The middle class has been fucked for too long, this is our time to take what we're owed and profess the justification for it. CEO's and shareholders walk away with the product of our labor. This is unacceptable. Something needs to change, and if nothing changes voluntarily, something will change by force. See the French Revolution. I just read an excerpt from one of my history books that almost exactly mirrors the current USA landscape, and it didn't really work out too well for Louis XVI..

So the next couple decades should be very interesting in American politics

I think you may have misunderstood my previous post. It was regarding the lunches kids do bring form home being "monitored" by the schools. There have been instances of schools micro managing bag lunch contents.

yeah, we should just let growing children eat whatever they want, no matter how unhealthy.

oh, and let's not forget that you should be able to pay them to have sex with you.
